Golf is back! Sentry Tournament of Champions Preview & Best Bets + CBB and NBA Picks
Sentry Tournament of Champions full preview, plus 6 CBB/NBA picks for tonight
January. Full of opportunity to get the year off to a great start, and we have done just that. After a rough slide to end 2023, we bounced back in a big way and hit both college football playoff picks, and then followed it up with a 2-0 night last night.
Let’s keep it rollin’
The Sentry Tournament of Champions Preview
Golf is officially back. Betting on golf is one of the most fun sports to bet on because there is so many options. throw a few darts at long shots with unbelievable odds? Sure. Make the cut parlay for +money? Sure. round by round betting? Why not. I’m excited to kick off the season with some picks for the smaller field in the tournament of champions, and continue to bring you Golf picks all year long. This course is long but fairways will come easily, and the ball will be rolling. The key thing to look at here is the wedge game, and aggressiveness. The winning score is going to be low, and this track will reward those who are pin seeking and knocking down birdies using their wedge and flat stick.
